I suggest that sci.physics be split into three sub-conferences:
1. sci.physics.orthodox
2. sci.physics.foundations (where FTL & philosophy etc. stuff would be)
3. sci.physics.education (questions of pedagogy, for students etc.)

I volunteer to edit 2.

I notice lots of multiple postings between sci. math and sci.physics - yet
when I put some optics related stuff in sci.optics I was immediately jumped
upon for wasting bit space with multiple listings - what gives? I was
told that the objection had nothing to do with content or value of the
posting.
PS the review of Gleick's book etc. would be in 3 - I volunteer to edit 3 as
well.
